The Church Isn’t Broken, Maybe We Just Stopped Abiding | An UNTO JESUS Conversation

What is the Church really called to do—and who’s responsible when it falls short? In this powerful episode of Nuance from Compassion International, [https://www.compassion.com/untojesus/?referer=711080&utm_source=transistor&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=unto_jesus_fy25#conversations] Austin Rockwell (young adult pastor, DJ, and founder of Kamp Love) joins NBA chaplain and Evolve Church pastor Kenneth Lock for a conversation that cuts through clichés and gets real about spiritual responsibility, justice, grief, partnership with the secular world, and the presence of God. Do all Christians have a personal duty to serve the marginalized? Should churches partner with secular organizations? Is the Church’s primary role worship, justice, or evangelism—or something deeper? With vulnerability, humor, and prophetic insight, Austin and Kenneth dismantle over-generalizations and call believers to a life of deep connection to Jesus—bearing fruit not from pressure, but from presence. If you’ve ever been burned out by church expectations or unsure how faith intersects with justice, this episode is for you. 🙏 Subscribe for more conversations like this—rooted in Scripture, full of grace, and honest enough to heal.
